The Oracle's Battle Focus contains the Combat Healer ability that I think it needs some clarification to prevent potential abuse. It states that an oracle can cast any cure spell as a swift action by "expending two spell slots," but is unclear if this specifically means the slots must both be of the same level as the cure spell being attempted, or if, say, a high-level oracle can cast a quickened cure critical wounds by spending a 4th level slot and a 1st level slot for the same effect.
Is there a prior precedent for this sort of slot expenditure that I haven't run across in play yet? Unsure of the intention, I fear it could be taken advantage of as read, if that is in fact not the intention.
Great stuff. I REALLY like the cavalier a lot, and that sort of class isn't really my thing, so kudos for the best version of cavalier yet!

That is two slots of the same level as the spell being cast.
